"A quintessential gastro pub and a bustling hostelry."
Overview
Owned by the same family since 1996, when it was purchased as a traditional watering hole and converted into a cosy, intimate inn, guests will find everything here is made on the premises. The fresh local ingredients and the seasonally changing menu is complimented by chef’s specials, which make this a quintessential gastro pub, popular with locals. Enjoy a meal in the informal conservatory, the cosy Lounge with log fire, or in the chic contemporary restaurant. Spacious bedrooms with a light and fresh décor ensure a comfortable and relaxing stay.

Our inspector loves...
  Award-winning food - Using wonderful local produce from both land and sea.
  Time to golf? - A number of high quality courses within easy reach.
  Log fire - After a day out and about bag yourself a place by the crackling fire.
  Cheers - A great range of beers, wines, gins and whiskies available.
  Peaceful location - Just off the new A90 but far enough to avoid traffic noise.
